Got to share this one. My mum & aunts gave me the gist tho. When they went for their interview. The guy just before them went to the booth and was denied a visa barely 2 minutes later & the guys starts screaming at his interviewer "who the hell do you think you are?! do you know me?!! you think you can come to my country & disrespect me?!!! you deny a whole me visa!!!! Shey its this Lagos, I have marked your face, I will deal with you!!!!. You better be sleeping here o!!!!! just make sure I dont see you on the road because I will teach you a lesson!!!!! Seconds later he is escorted out by security still yelling...till today it still cracks them up!

I can't stop laughing.

I was there a week back around 6:30am. We all waited patiently for the first interview and hoped that if his/her visa was granted the goodluck would rub off on the rest of us....for where?

It was a lady and her interview took place in booth 7. She claimed that she was going to attend a seminar sponsored by a company she distributes for here in Nigeria. After the VO found her not eligible for the visa, he was about handing over her documents when the lady said, "Oga, please hold on to it, my interview can't be over". Then VO repeated that "you are ineligible", while he was saying this, the lady keep on explaining how many clients she has, how much she makes... vo repeated himself, Lady also repeated her self. At that point everyone laughed so hard. The lady left a few seconds later.



My own unusual experience.

Same day as above. While waiting in line outside, I discovered that I was feeling some fresh air around my toes, on both feet. When I looked down, the sole of my shoe was coming off from the front. Horror!!! I've not even entered the Consulate yet. Why me? With each step I took, more of the sole was coming off, got to a point I couldn't lift my feet to walk, I dragged them, I was already in the interviewing area at this point.

I kept on praying for this little incidence not to cause any visa denial. It didn't. After it was approved, I majestically walked out with half of the sole of my shoe gone. When people waiting outside saw me, there laughed, and I thought within myself......"dey laugh me, make you no go face your own interview"

By the way, those shoes, did you buy them from TrueRebel? #justcurious

I just pray that one day, Americans (and the world) will be struggling to get visa into our dear country. What u called funny might not be really funny to some people. I just hope that things get better here in Naija so the number of applicants will be reduced. God bless America too, no easy to build a strong country.

Nigerians embarrassing themselves since 1960 for American visa.

Why travel if you don't have any genuine reason?

Get all the necessary things right and legally ,no normal person will deny you visa.But if you're desperate ,then you're on your own.

I was denied january 17 dis year...I was not bothered and d nxt tin i did was to apply for canada visa n it was granted...so i made my trip to ontario via Delta airline n had stop over in atlanta in US..so my dream of goin to america was achieved... dem denied me buf I stil enta deir land witout dem visa.

How possible is that? You need an American visa to transit.

U mean Christ embassy?

no job is a deadly dan ebola

Ha naija ppl can hammer big big lie oooo

holamiday:
What nonsense! I pray throughout my life, i never have to beg someone for the chance to enter another country. I love Nigeria to a fault and i'm not freaked about anywhere else. If i really need to travel somewhere else, for school perhaps, i still wouldn't beg anybody...i'd rather forget about that school.

NIGERIA is the best place to be.

Yeah right. Tell me you didn't apply for the visa lottery when Nigeria was still eligible. Una too dey lie.
I know 2 people like you. 10 years ago, they said they don't need to leave Nigeria and don't care about the U.S. One of them now lives in Baltimore, the other in New York. Naija people too dey misyarn

It's quite sad the emotions folks put into acquiring a Visa..

If that were the case, we wouldn't have so many denials. There are people with legitimate reasons that get denied so spare me.
If the VO's actually used documents and stuff, so many won't be denied. A lot of times they deny simply based on perception.
Explain this situation, a female friend applied for a visa and got denied without being asked anything except why are you going to the U.S. She said she wanted to go on vacation. She applied again 4 weeks after and got approved with the same answer. No document was checked the first time. The second time the new VO asked to look at her documents. She just returned to Nigeria after her 2week vacation last month. Why do you think the first officer denied her?

Il y a des gens qui comprennent et parlent bien français monsieur. Racontez - nous de votre expérience à l'ambassade américaine s'il vous plaît!

Uglykunu:
There's this woman on the day of that wanted to go for visiting, the visa officer was like At this moment, we are sorry we cannot offer you visa.. She replied immediately what's so special in your country? I want to go and spend my money and improve the economic situation of your country.. The visa officer has not returned her passport then and she was like I'll grant your visa just for you to see what's special in my country... For all those wey dey lie say dem dey comot for queue go toilet... There's no queue in the interview room... Make una no come here dey blow lie

In the same vein, for all of una wey dey concoct visa embassy lies, na God go catch you.
I have heard this story so many times. Nigerians can re-use and re-package another man's gist in order to gain an audience.
[size=14pt]Just say, someone told you the gist[/size]

Nah. Far from it.
Just to keep the memory as fresh as possible. Nothing more.

na this one make me laugh

dammilotun:
Anyone ever been to the U.S embassy Walter Carrington lagos.I was there sometimes ago with a friend to process our student visa. I saw a lot of funny things.the crowd there was similar to that of the redemption camp at a distance .I saw a lot of folks kitted like business men,some from the word go I already denied them in my mind.funniest of my experience that day was a lady who was interviewed just before me.she claimed she was going to see her uncle in Atlanta whose wife just gave birth.the consular asked if she has a job to which she said yes.without asking she said she works in an oil and gas company;name have never heard before,the address she gave was right beside my house....lol.I tapped myself to wake myself up from the dream...the consular asked how many month was she gonna help babysit the child as she claimed...she said 8months...the consular denied her and here she goes kneeling down.please sir for heaven sake,for the sake of this new baby pls give me this visa...I literally busted into an uncontrollable laughter as the security guys showed her the way out.it was such a gorycomical sight.guys share your funny experience at the us embassy

bros,i think you just lied.How the hell did you hear the conversation when you are supposed to be sat,praying to God and waiting for your turn? Pls there's no way you could have possibly heard that conversation if u weren't standing beside her.

my funny (not funny for the applicant though) experience was watching some dude from the east. answering one question.

1: You said you own a farm, what is the value in naira? JAMB question the dude kept going, it is a farm and i make plenty money on it. it is in millions of naira. it is bigger than this embassy sef. in my mind i was like, just give the guy a figure between N10-N15 million

I think the key to getting a US visa most times is your Financial Standing when filling out the application. my interview lasted 3 minutes and the interviewer told me my visa has been approved and to pick it up at this address in VI. I never had the chance to show him my carefully packed documents. strange. i thought it was a prank. i actually thought i had been denied until i got to DHL office to pick it up. my Wife was even heavily pregnant and the questions he asked were

1: have you been out of Nigeria as a family -YES
2: Do you plan to give birth in the US - YES
3: have you made arrangements -NO i plan to if i get the visa but I have made calls

scanned our finger prints and that was it.

CONGRATULATIONS!

My wife and I are scheduled for interview to renewal of our visas thursday next week, she's pregnant and we plan to have our baby in US. Yours is an indication that obtaining the US visa is grace n favour, not just by getting Doctor's letter of responsibility etc

The Joke is on you. Yes i haven't crossed the lines of aba but i cross the lines that separate Nigeria from the Atlantic every 28 to 35 days.
Quit all your lie lie juh. Copy copy gist. If you plagiarize gist, at least "quote" the original person that told you the gist.

Good thread, good laugh

timpaker:
[b]Mine was last year September,
I was to attend a graduation party of a friend in New York. I applied for Visa through my the Abuja Office and when they called me for an interview, I wasn't feeling too well but went all the same. I stood for about 3 hours with empty stomach on a queue so long like cars during fuel scarcity.
A girl (a buttee) whom I was chatting saw the way I was leaning on the wall took pity/interest in me asked me what the matter was, and I told her I wasn't feeling too well and was hungry also. She told me to secure her line while she went to get me food but before she got back, my interview was over and my visa approved. I stood outside waiting for her while about 7 people had gone in and when she came back I told the people that she was on the queue before and that she just went to get me food - pointing to the food pack on my hand... for where, dem no gree.
She told me to eat my food that she'll handle it well. I started eating the rice and fish while chipping in points in their argument.
Long story short... She got angry and called someone from State House/VILLA and within 5 mins her name was called, she entered and didn't spend up to 5mins and her visa was approved. She came out booing the people on queue and decided to walk me to the car while I enquired why she didn't pull her connect from the beginning and allowing us stand that long. She smiled and said "At times you need to avoid showing off" (I don't know what she meant by that. She demanded we exchange contacts... Just when I stretched my hand to collect her phone.........I puked on her and those people on the queue just started laughing at us.
I just use shame enter my car zoom off....
